I've not looked at Stellaris memes, but honest to god the amount of micromanaging that comes with not genociding xenos, not refusing refugees and/or selecting xeno compatibility is ungodly.
I do those things solely so I don't have to spend 50% of my game time (and 50% of my research time) on the population screen slowly re-modifying all the trillions of species that arrived, cross-bred, and created 10 new species that haven't used all their gene points every damn month. Then I have to wait for the project to be ready. Then I have to manually go to the projects screen and start it. FOR EVERY INDIVIDUAL SPECIES.
The second Paradox actually introduce a mechanic that automates gene therapising without eating all my research, I will be overjoyed to finally play a large, diverse species playthrough.
The last time I gave Stellaris a go was with the Federations DLC and quickly realized it was awful trying to get anything done with how dog shit the AI is.
